Surrender yourself to Don Juan and you will experience a man of irresistible charm, a master of language and logic, and an expert in joyful persuasion. Romancer of all women he finds attractive, Don Juan brazenly expresses what those around him only dream of putting into spoken words. But has he finally seduced his last beautiful woman and dodged his last detractor with his latest outrages? The treatment of this universal legend by the author of Tartuffe and The Misanthrope is at once a probing exploration of the darker recesses of the soul and a brilliant comic portrayal of human behavior at its most unbridled.
